Hello, there. Antioxidants are very useful substances. They prevent damage that is caused by free radicals. The most famous ones are vitamin E, C and A, then there are selenium and omega-3 acids. You can’t have benefit from only one antioxidant. It is better to combine various antioxidants for better effect. However, I think that one mustn’t exaggerate with antioxidant supplements. It is especially true if one has balanced diet. I hope I’ve helped you with my reply. I hope you will strengthen your immunity. Good luck!

i agree with berke that there are many different antioxidants. If you are looking for something which helps keep you well and avoid things like colds and flu i have found that black elderberries is the best. It has the most antioxidants in any fruit. I started taking a liquid supplement made from black elderberries and it has definitely made a difference to me.
Here is a link to loads of information on black elderberry properties etc. Hope i've been of some help
